The Walking Dead: Season 8B Teaser Trailer

AMC‘s The Walking Dead: Season 8B teaser trailer stars Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Chandler Riggs, Lauren Cohan, and Danai Gurira.The Walking Dead: Season 8B’s plot synopsis: “All out war has had a devastating impact on every person involved. The communities themselves are fractured. Alexandria has been destroyed, the Hilltop finds themselves pinned, and the Kingdom is shattered — half of them dead, the other half controlled by the Saviors.

At the very center — Rick, having been distracted by the conflict, has just returned home to learn that Carl, who heroically shepherded the Alexandrians to safety during Negan’s attack, has been bitten by a walker. Once his sole motivation in this otherwise stark existence, Rick is forced to deal with this reality. Carl has always been a beacon of hope, a symbol for the remaining thread of humanity — lessons that the survivors around him would be wise to take with them as this war surges onward.

But Rick isn’t the only person who’s living in peril. Aaron and Enid are in a dire situation at Oceanside — unclear if they’re in friendly territory, or if they’ve just made new enemies. Father Gabriel will do his part in attempting to smuggle Dr. Carson safely back to the Hilltop and a pregnant Maggie is wrestling with the many moral gray areas that come with leadership during war. In a standoff with the Saviors, she must decide how to proceed with the dozens of POW lives she’s currently in control of, as well as new complications that come with being a leader.

In addition to the war, Negan continues to deal with struggles within his ranks as workers, traitors, and others’ thirst for power cause conflict at the Sanctuary. Having gifted the Saviors a major victory, Eugene’s loyalty is repeatedly tested as new obstacles present themselves.

As all-out-war consumes us, the line between good and evil continues to blur. People fighting for what they believe in. Everybody working together for something bigger — to feel safe and have a world worth living in.”

The fight between Negan’s group and Rick Grimes’ group has been drawn out. Now it looks like it is finally coming to an end.

Watching Rick running away from a one-on-one fight with Negan at the end of Season 8A, an even, fair fight, after everything that Negan had done (e.g. killing Glenn and numerous other people), was a sad, pathetic joke. The viewer was literally seeing the producers drawing out the conflict, drawing out Negan being alive, etc. I can’t imagine any of that happening in the comic book segment on which this section of the TV series is based.
